Timeline Context - Time Bar at top of Timeline auto-resets. WHY???

It seems to reset after a render and/or switching between AE and other apps. 

Each day, I have to reset it for every come about 100 times; once for every comp in an AEP and for each time AE does this, all comps are affected. It's insane or at least it's driving me up the wall, ceiling, down and then back up again. I'm hopeful this is an easy fix.

Managed to repro - 

1) Set Timeline Zoom Bar (that stretchy thin bar at the top of the Timeline) to your preferred time position and zoom level.

2) Toggle Timeline to Full Screen

3) Toggle Timeline back to non-Full Screen. Notice the Timeline Zoom Bar has moved to the start of the Timeline - away from when you had set it, just before going Full Screen. Grrrrrrrrrrr!

Can you make a screen recording of what you're seeing? I think I'm following your steps above but I'm not seeing the result you are.

Thanks for looking into this, Jenk. Hopefully, the screen recording shows the issue more clearly. The Timeline Zoom Bar resets itself to the start and it also resets to a predefined duration.

Thanks for reporting @Roland Kahlenberg -, 

I'm able to repro what you're seeing and have filed a bug. I'll let you know as soon as there is some news on the street 😉 

Thanks,

Thanks Dacia!  Please also note the issue with the Zoom Bar having its own mind occurs regardless of the Zoom Level and where it iis placed when the Timeline leaves Full Screen Mode.
